Sun Spring Water (2)

'This is amazing.'

Jinhyuk's eyes narrowed as he looked at his opponent.

there's no way you don't know

How could you not know?

Mask with geometric patterns.

A slender yet strong physique.

Above all, the mana flowing out of the body is unusual.

player Unknown.

To be precise, it is a fake pretending to be unknown.

jerk.

Unknown stood next to Snyder.

"Recently, the appearance of an unknown player has been rare. Of course, I thought that I would be with player Jinhyuk Kang, but I heard that he would act separately for some reason."

Already, in various communications, rumors of a discord between Jinhyeok and Unknown were being mentioned casually.

I often wondered if the two players who had built a united front would become estranged from each other, but as they consistently refused to respond to numerous interview requests, of course, there was no choice but to ignite a fire.

In particular, the biggest reason was that Unknown was not included in the official members of the Goin Corporation.

'I'm going to use that to pretend I'm not known and suck some honey... .'

how to take this

Jinhyuk smiled bitterly.

If you're an opportunist like a goblin, you're an opportunist. If you're stupid, you're stupid.

'Even if no one else knows, I must know that there is a high probability that I will be able to discern the authenticity of Unknown.'

Still, is he convinced that Unknown is hiding his identity until the end?

Or does it mean that I don't care if I know I'm fake?

It's true that either way is interesting.

"...So, why did you bring that person here?"

"As you know, Unknown player is a ranker with numerous achievements. Even the Awakening Association has allowed the tower to be attacked as an exception."

Snyder gave a lot of flair.

As if to say that he is completely grasping the Unknown.

"Even if you, Jinhyuk Kang, don't you think it's easy to attack the upper tiers? Especially if you're in a position to walk on a road you've never been before for the first time."

As yet, there was no specific information about the upper floors.

Dare to predict, there will be plenty of floors that are several times more difficult than the middle floor.

That's fine, it's a minority. It is said that it is impossible to predict what variables will be present.

"However, if you work with us, we will support you in a more comfortable way."

more up than now.

More stable and faster.

It means that we will provide support in both economic and practical ways.

"Certainly... it's not bad."

"Do you mean you want to accept our offer?"

"First, I want to talk to Unknown a little bit. We'll talk about it later."

"...Okay. Please don't drag it too long."

Snyder looked around once more.

Then he stepped back for a moment and made a place just for the two of them.

ruler.

How are you going to get out now?

Jinhyuk looked at his opponent in the face.

Unknown also did not avoid Jinhyuk's gaze.

whoops

An annoying sigh escaped.

"I'm not very fond of silly psychological warfare or head fights, so let me tell you in advance. I have no intention of pretending to be an ignorant. I've only put on this mask to get your attention."

said himself

Was it the latter?

" I admit that it is surprisingly cool. I thought I would give a little more excuses."

"He's the type of person who hates wasting time. Just because he decides to cheat, he's not someone he can cheat on either."

"Then, we all know each other. Why don't we take off the mask and have a conversation?"

"I'm sorry, but that can't be. There's no reason to show your bare face just because you're not Unknown."

"I'm sorry, but I didn't ask for it either."

Jinhyuk's fingers moved.

Pachis NS!

As mana gathered, 'barrier' and 'glacier modeling' were activated at the same time.

[The 6-star 'Enclosed Realm' is activated!]

[[Glacier modeling]

'Extreme Ice Arrow' is activated!]

The ice powder took shape in an instant.

I wondered if the three arrows were flashing, and they rushed in aiming at Unknown's mask.

at close range. It is also a surprise attack that specializes in speed.

However.

Puppupuck!

The ice arrows scattered around the mask as powder.

"He's been attacking all over the place, and he's a tricky guy, as I've heard."

Let alone a motion to block, he could not even detect a sign that mana was rearranged.

The barrier also disappeared without a trace.

What is this monster... ?

"you ."

Jinhyuk was about to say something, but Unknown was one step faster.

"It hurts my head in various ways because the silent divinities are rampaging. Olympus and Ragnarok are also a problem, but it's annoying that they fuse.

An ordinary player can't talk about divinities.

There were very few people I met. Even that would be entangled in a perfect hierarchical relationship.

resident do you mean

No, I don't know anyone among the residents.

A being with such a strange mana... .

' .'

Neither is the manager.

Divinity wasn't even that.

There is only one possibility to infer.

"Operator ."

"Hey, he said he wouldn't be ignorant at all. I don't think you need to be frustrated."

A bizarre mouth appeared on Unknown's mask.

You can see the creepy red mouth and the teeth protruding between them.

"Sae Young Eon-Hwan revealed himself only after revealing his identity, are you saying you are different?"

"He's a 'contemplative'. He prefers to watch without interfering with the trend."

"I'm a 'variable maker'. Hmm. How can I explain it? Ah. Yeah. I'd rather say that I prefer to put a little sauce on the existing boredom."

One of the viewers who watched the broadcast in the early days.

The operator was one of the factors that did not exist in the Tower of Trials in the past.

In fact, it was Sae Young Eon Hwan who warned of the change of the 50th floor.

then .

Who is the guy in front of you?

"Can you tell me about your nickname? Still, it's a BJ you enjoyed once, so can I know the name of the listener?"

"I'm sorry for this. It wasn't polite as a fan. Sure. Nicknames don't matter."

The corners of Unknown's lips moved upward gently.

"Do you remember when I said 'eagle owl'?

Of course it is memorable.

In the past, viewers who supported all kinds of food on TV.

I remember walking Black a few times trying to feed the monster.

Damn it. I'm sure I'll meet that psycho in real life.

"I don't think Sol's eyes will tell you to eat only Sundae Gukbap. But I don't think it's not like someone with a heavy butt, who is like an operator, is trying to sell memories, right?"

"The reason I came this far is because I want to be with you in this raid."

"...the spring of the sun?"

"Yes. There is a reason we must go together."

This is where things get complicated.

It's absurd that the operator appeared out of nowhere, but that operator asked to go to the labyrinth on the 23rd floor with you.

"What would you do?"

"How are you, what are you doing?"

I don't know if this is poison or an apple or not.

But one thing is for sure... .

It's just an opportunity to get some clues about the operator's identity and purpose.

"As long as you don't interfere, it's always Shadow."

Jinhyuk accepted Unknown's offer.

right then

"I'm sorry. I'm late. On the way, I met someone for a while, so I was coming together... um?"

Cheon Yoo-seong, who was approaching with a brief apology, tilted his head.

He found some strange people standing next to Jinhyuk.

"Cheon Yoo-seong player .. Wasn't it you who Jin-hyuk Kang was waiting for?"

Snyder's face contorted.

However, Snyder's misfortune did not end there.

It's only just begun.

"Hey, what the hell is this?"

When Cheon Yoo-seong came, he met none other than Han Sang-jin.

He is the president of the Korean Awakened Association.

As much as the scars on his face, the heinous feelings about the current situation were revealed without filtration.

I found out that a foreign agent is accusing Jinhyuk, a Korean treasure... .

Of course, anger would rise.

On the other hand.

"Ah ."

Snyder shuddered with a look of loss of the world.

At least... !

In order not to encounter South Korean government agents, they entered the country secretly and sealed off information thoroughly.

In order not to give any reason to get caught up in any way, I put in an unimaginable manpower and capital.

All those efforts were in vain.

"This is interesting. Mr. Snyder. Is what you are doing now representing the will of the Titan Guild and the American Awakened Association?"

"Hey, this is a misunderstanding. We didn't intend that..."

"It's not intentional, isn't it? Just looking at it, they're trying to steal our VIPs?"

Snyder was unable to respond to Han Sang-jin's sullen blasphemy.

No matter how strong the United States was, it was incomparable to Korea.

If the pods were caught in this way, there was a fear that they would provide various disadvantages in the future relationship.

There was someone who saved me from such a desperate situation.

"Large! President of the Association. That's not it, there really was a misunderstanding."

It was Jinhyuk.

"Are you saying it's a misunderstanding?"

"Yes. Mr. Snyder who came here said he would provide everything for free, with a very compassionate heart for the future of mankind."

"No, it's free...!?"

Snyder took a deep breath.

"Hey, what does that mean?"

"Isn't it? So, it's not a misunderstanding, it's really not a misunderstanding, it's just that you have a bad heart for me... Well, that's what it means."

Jinhyuk's eyes went cold.

"It's not me if that's what it meant "

"Yes, don't stumble and speak slowly. I'm listening."

" "

If you refute here, you will only be able to show yourself the evidence that you were trying to steal talent from other countries.

Even so, if you were to build a stiff pedigree, a catastrophe could occur that became hostile to Jin-hyuk.

dilemma situation.

finally.

" you ate one right. Just take it all. I lost."

Snyder gave up on everything and shook his head.

Sang-Jin Han and Snyder said they had a little more to tell and moved their seats.

Unknown No, the eagle owl also left his seat, saying he had some work to do.

Now, you have less than an hour to get to the 23rd floor of the tower.

Jinhyuk and Cheon Yuseong checked their equipment and supplies one last time before entering the Tower of Trials.

Chunkyung!

Cheon Yu-seong, who was wearing a long sword that he had never seen, on his waist, alluded to his luck.

"Isn't Elise-san with you?"

"He's going to fall this time."

Elise, Belus and Ophelia.

The three ended the story by moving separately to make contact with Eden.

'Kizakiel, who belongs to Eden, has attacked my base, so I'll be able to use that as an excuse to rip it apart.'

Even if Kizakiel made excuses for being expelled from Eden, it would be enough to just say that it wasn't my part-time job.

Eden, who is hung up on clues about the Necronomicon, will have no choice but to move as this side wants, at least for the time being.

"It seems that Teresa-san is busy in Europe and the teachers have also left for Moorim's business So, it means that you and I will have to conquer the labyrinth together without fail."

"Why. Are you anxious about the swordsmanship of the world?"

"Anxiety! I just meant not to be vigilant."

"Still, isn't it you with just one sword? In the past, in Moorim what is it, you've beaten the plum blossom swordsman of the volcano, right?"

"That's... isn't that what happened when he came down from the tower under restrictions? And you know that...

Chun Yu-seong's face was crumpled, perhaps because of his pride.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't know."

No, you really didn't know?

If you swing it outside, you can't erase the evidence. really.

Jinhyuk hurriedly waved both hands.

"You two look happy."

The last member of this raid.

An eagle owl came in front of the two with their masks on.
